Grants to this Grantee
for the freight and goods delivery electrification project
Securing Americas Future Energy (SAFE) works with business and former military leaders to improve Americas energy diversity and reduce its dependence on oil. With this grant, SAFE will develop a medium- and heavy-duty electric vehicle pilot project. SAFE will work with vehicle manufacturers, charging infrastructure providers, freight operators, and government to identify and overcome barriers to the procurement and use of electric vehicles. The project will aim to deeply understand and advance road-freight electrification at scale in the U.S.
for general operating support
The goal of Securing Americas Future Energy (SAFE) is to reduce U.S. oil consumption to address the economic and national security dangers, including environmental implications, caused by the nations dependence on petroleum. SAFE is effective in bringing together different voices, particularly business and conservative leaders, in support of clean energy solutions for transport. SAFEs main focus for the next year will be energy-related national security issues; working with business, military leaders, and consumers to maintain support for fuel economy standards; and electric vehicle policies and incentives, in key states and cities. One of these cities is Columbus recent winner of the Smart Cities Challenge.
